I purchased this wooden bottle at a yard sale at a 100+ year old home that had been closed up for years. It looks to me like a simple, turned piece of wood. I believe it is hollow due to the wax plugs on each end. The top end has JX-9864 and a circled letter "I" on it. This item is lightweight and the size of a wine bottle. I'd love to know more about it and a value.
